By consideration of the buoyancy effects associated with the release of latent heat, an hypothesis concerning a mechanism for the formation of cloud lines is set up. Adequate data for a quantitative check of this hypothesis are not available; however, plausible synoptic examples are shown. In the course of the work, a method for computing the orientation of the axis of dilation of a wind field is developed.
